WYSIWYG...
"What You See Is What You Get". It is the ultimately appropriate computer age acronym to represent the specter of a catastrophic looming presidency that is purely B. Hussein Obama... So the huge question becomes, "Do enough people still have critical vision to see what we will ALL get?"
We are, at long awaited time, finally entering the home stretch to the Presidential Finish Line. Interestingly, OBama and swarm want us to ignore 'that man behind the curtain' whilst hurling "Racist" imputations at anyone who would stoop so low as to exercise their First Amendment rights and entreat a querie or two about his misty, shadowed past.
Perhaps, just maybe, I might supplicate your consideration of a few items?
The economy is on the skids thanks to ludicrous, insane Give-Away Loan programs arranged and politically sustained by the Champions of the Free Ride... Behold, for example, the Frank/Dodd FHA Refinance Plan. We are to ignore and forget this despite, for example, Mr. Frank, an ardent OBama supporter, having a gay lover who held a high position at Fannie Mae.
WASHINGTON — Unqualified home buyers were not the only ones who benefitted from Massachusetts Rep. Barney Frank’s efforts to deregulate Fannie Mae throughout the 1990s.
So did Frank’s partner, a Fannie Mae executive at the forefront of the agency’s push to relax lending restrictions.
Now that Fannie Mae is at the epicenter of a financial meltdown that threatens the U.S. economy, some are raising new questions about Frank's relationship with Herb Moses, who was Fannie’s assistant director for product initiatives. Moses worked at the government-sponsored enterprise from 1991 to 1998, while Frank was on the House Banking Committee, which had jurisdiction over Fannie.
Predictably, "the blame" is laid at Mr. Bushy's feet and deemed "a continuation of faulty policy" referencing the possibility of a McCain occupied Oval Office. (Thank you, Left Media and your influence over the hapless minions. Secondary thanks goes to John Boy himself for his totally inept, damn near non-existent efforts to clearly state the facts and refute the Obambam Bullsh*t Machine. Even on October 19th, he is telling FOX News Sunday how his opponent is a great guy and he is ready to accept it if he loses...)
Anybody getting just a smidge chapped about this, yet?
Out of the last turn and down the under three week straightaway... we seem to be just trailing? ...trailing a lot? ...not trailing? Do we really know? Hell NO, we don't know! We, the audience, focus is blurry and uncertain, due to an unreliable vision provided by our corrupt, agenda centered Leftist media... and the "pollsters". We are told what to think and when to think it, with popularly served opinions sourced from those disseminators. They can and have historically spread and flowered into the most radical of distortion. It is no longer the "People's Decision". It has become the game of the "People's Persuasion". (May I remind you right here that we were told to expect both a President Gore and then later a President Kerry, too?)
Money, rhetoric, distortion, spin, game chants, artful word parries/deceptions, greed, power questing, self servitude... all these are the components of what has become a bile that has replaced what once represented the People's free choice... long ago, in a different, seemingly lost age. Today it is wielded with the instant capability of 24 hour worldwide "news coverage" on television and Internet (which wouldn't be a bad thing necessarily, if it were truly neutral opinioned news!). The fact that the repetitive, forceful hammering of the "poll numbers" and their dismal McCain's-gonna'-lose predictions also hold the promise of causing many to simply stay home on election day with "Why bother?" depression should not be overlooked, either. Each is a real and contributing particle to an intentional poisoning.
But hey! ...Ignore that ACORN voter fraud history and $800,000 OBambam campaign contribution (just like you would for John McCain... or like you would for Sarah Palin)! It's ONLY federal crime level illegal and won't affect things much anyway, right? What a few million extra votes, eh?
So what if he began his political career with terrorist (and DON'T try to feed me that "former-terrorist" qualifier!) Ayers and distributed millions for him and his undermining causes to the corrupt Chicago political gristmill?
From an interview between Terrorist Bill Ayers and David Horowitz...
Dressed in bib overalls with golden curls rolling below his ears, Ayers reviewed his activities as a terrorist for my tape recorder. When he was done, he broke into a broad, Jack Horner grin and summed up his experience: "Guilty as hell. Free as a bird. America is a great country."
"Kill all the rich people, break up their cars and apartments, bring the revolution home…that’s where it’s really at."
You wouldn't hold McCain and Palin to the same non-existent degree of accountability there, either... right?
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiight...
In my view, it comes down to relatively simple terms, sides... and the people on them.
It is a battle of those who feel needy and those who answer the challenge of their own needs. The leftist agenda political advances of the past thirty years or so have spawned a disturbingly high number of people with the "special me" mentality. The left has sold the notion, false as it truly is, that our citizenry somehow has a "right" to being coddled, protected, shielded and held. (Dignity and self fulfilled goals are "old fashioned" and now obsolete.) They promote and endorse an anger wrapped around this central theme. It is a mind's view which frees the manipulated, the verily indoctrinated, from any deep thought, economic reality... or any true attachment to reality at all. It is the equivalent of the raucous crowd's sagacity during a third century style Roman heathen festival of gladiator confrontations. There is little exuberance based in logic or fact, but only that of the mass movement and the crowd's cajoling.
This colossal farce is successful because we do not face the same individual, day to day challenges of the common man back in the days of our nation being settled and solidly established. Once, men and women were self reliant, self sustaining and expected no one to "save them". Whining and foot stomping was noticed by no others... they were far too occupied ensuring their own family's survival. People helped themselves and one another by the goodness in their hearts, not by mandating the intrusive government's Golden Pocket dispersal, lined with stolen fruits picked by all working hands.
And how about that income redistribution plan that B.O. finally fessed to in responding to Joe the other day, eh?
He's also going to let the Bush Tax Cuts expire, then lower "95% of the citizen's taxes". Does this sound like a Used Car Lot Weekend Sale, wherein they raise prices significantly on wrecked repaints during the week and then extol single digit percent discounts inviting you down to buy up the "deals"? Well, it's going to be "forced attendance" at the Barack Used Car Show and everybody is buying, Folks! ...Because he's damn sure got a serious trillion dollar spending plan!
Life, liberty, freedom and especially... happiness... are now purveyed as "guaranteed". Under this arcane wizardry, the Magician can label almost anything as a perceived "right"! The "right" to employment (worthy of the job... or not), the "right" to health care (government sanctioned, atrociously/impossibly overpriced and patently failing... or not), the "right" to others wealth (whether earned by your labors... or not) and surely, predictably, the "right" to sit on your lazy butt, bemoan your sad circumstance and declare your deserved sustenance from everyone else's responsible behavior. Therefore, in this doctrine, it follows quite naturally as someone doing you "wrong" when all of these items don't automatically arrive on your doorstep every morning... "for free".
Frankly, it reminds me of a prostitute who once said, "Nobody gets nothing for nothing".
For frosting, we have the fact that all our world enemies have endorsed B. H. Obama, too... from Hamas to Ahmadinejhad to Chavez to Castro. Wonder why they would do that, don't you?

"Not present, or at least not singing the National Anthem at the rally was Londonderry senior Zach Bencal.
Bencal, who sings the anthem for a number of school events and is actively involved in local community theatre, had been contacted by the Obama campaign to sing the anthem. He agreed to do so, then was told later in the evening the anthem had been scratched from the program. Bencal said he was told by the campaign the decision was a simple programming change to make room for another speaker.
"I guess it just wasn't meant to be," Bencal said.
Sandra Abrevaya, communications director for the Obama campaign's Manchester office, confirmed the choice had simply been a last-minute scratch from the rally's program, which included the Pledge of Allegiance.
"We regret the miscommunication with Zach about today's event but we are pleased that several other New Hampshire residents were able to speak at today's event, where thousands of voters in both parties gathered to hear Sen. Obama discuss his plan to bring the change we need to Washington."
It's a very disturbing testimonial to the presence of mind and true regard for their country, when "supporters" of the Obama charade and pageantry don't notice or care (much less protest) the absence of our Pledge of Allegiance and our National Anthem. This is just an incredibly sad death knell... It makes me want to drink in some REAL truth.
God bless us...
